Finally got my new rig up and running...

[Jon]

Intel Core 2 Duo Q6600 @ 2.40 GHz
4 GB RAM
XFX nVidia Geforce GTX 260 896 MB Graphics Card, overlocked

Running on Windows 7 64-bit.

Absolutely fucking love it. Fastest PC I've ever worked on, much less owned.

I'm thinking of adding another 4 gigs. Not because I need it, but because it was so cheap.

The quad processor is amazing. I've had so many programs open at once, and it hasn't even hesitated. I was really worried I would fuck up when installing the heatsink, but I'm idling at around 30 degrees. Even when running high performing programs or multiple programs, it stays relatively cool. I guess having 3 system fans, a high performance heatsink, and a graphics card with a high performance cooling system I don't really have much to worry about in the heat department. I could use this son of a bitch as an air conditioner.
